1t is needless to say that Americans,
as a rule, dislike. and rather despise,
nice calculation of expenses. But
every hslt-score years or SO, financial
depression. like the present, forces US
suddenly to 6t Of economy. and at
such time people Of moderate income
are obliged to scrutinize ways and
means very carefully. 1t is to people
of this sort that we would give a few
hints-some old, and, We hope, some
new ones-as to how these two ends,
that arc so perverse about flying apart,
should be made to meet. Carlyle q
saying, that it is easier to diminish the
denominator than to increase the emu
merator, is Que that we Americans are
apt to disdain. and yet it is the only
way to secure peace Of mind-to live
within ones income.

BY oxITA.

Twas near the pensive close OF day.
The sun was sinking in the West,
And shadows veiled each cheering ray.
That struggled in the gloom to rest.
When twilight dews came gently down,
And baihed in sIft and misty light,
The tow ring mountains hoary crown,
That looked the sentinel Of night
Each ein'rald blade and sleeping flower
shed fragrance on the halmy breeze
That softly stirred in natures bow'r
And swelled like music 'mong the trees
The birds had ceased their vesper HYMN.
The laughing rill, In liquid lays,
Reechoed through the forest dim.
Reposing meath the silv'ry haze.
While bound by mem'rys magic pow'r,
gaZed upon the solemn scene,
And dreams of childhood's sunny hour
Before my vision danced serene;
And fancy woye the mystic chain,
Whose golden links Of boyhood's wears,
Were dimm'd in manhOod's saddened train
OF sinful wiles and troubled cares.
Again ! roved the haunts of yore,
And felt my spirit thrill anew,
As forms beloved appeared once more
10 filt before my 'raptured view;
And utter words of peace and love,
In touching strains that meet the soul,
As softly WHISPERED from above
When whelming tides around us roll.
Anon twined the garlands light,
That deck'd with pride my youthful brow,
And thought the victors path was bright
As solder-like pledged my VOW.
The rustic cot with vine-clad walls,
Now rose 10 view and seemed more dear.
Than glittring thrones and marble halls
OF sceptred king aid stately peer.
iain would linger on the past,
And scan the deeds of lite's career,
But twilight shades We're gath ring fast,
And nights dark mantle chill and drear
Closed DER the scene and broke the spell,
That nlem'ry walked with sad delight,
The vision fled as Passing Bell
Proclaimed the silent reign of Night.

mons Thursday Mr. William Redmond, re-
ferring to Chamberlains speech at Ayr, said
Chamberlain had misrepresented him (Red-
mond) as saying in an address delivered at
the National league convention held in Chi.
cago last year that the Irish party were not
working for the removal of grievances.
"This," said Redmond, ''is not true. What
did say was that the people of ireland
through their representatives in parliament,
were not working solely to remove the ma
tional grievances of tenants, but were also
aiming to achieve important political re-
forms Furthermore, when / said that the
government of -lrelaud by England was i'm

JAMESTOWN, n Y, April l5-Nearly
year ago the village of Jamestown became
an Incorporated city. Since that time there
has been no code of local laws or city ordi-
nances, owing to the non-procurement of
city charter, the obtaining Of which has been
delayed again and again. To-day the city
Of jamestown has a population of l6, 900
people, but the place is in the same condi-
tion in regard to local laws and ordinances
as the hamlets and villages Of few hundred
inhabitants. There is but one policeman to
guard the town in day time, and at night
two policemen watch over the lives OF $l6,
900 people and protect millions OF dollars
worth of property.
When this state of affairs became known
to the gamblers and crooks of other cities,
they began flocking here in large numbers
During the past few months dozen gambling
rooms have been in operation, and fifty
sporting women and several hundred
gamblers, crooks and blacklegs have con-
gregated here. Two weeks ago a series Of
burglaries began which have continued
nightly. Last Saturday morning Mr..
A R. Catlin shot and instantly killed
Chester W. Green, one of large gang Of
burglars Green was caught ia the act of
entering Catlin's house. This act of justifiable
homicide did not seem to have the desired
effect upon the burglars and crooks, as rob
berries and burglaries have occurred nightly
since the killing of Green. The two night
policemen have been powerless, and the en-.
tire city has been and is virtually at the
mercy of an organized band of thieves.
Wednesday night twenty citizens met and
volunteered their services as special pa
troll Notwithstanding these precautions q
citizen was attacked by two highway men al
. O'Clock Wednesday night, and Thursday
morning, between l and 2 O'Clock, burglars
entered the house of MIR. Brockway, and
took the money from his trousers pockets
The town is 50 thoroughly frightened that
many women and children have not gone to
bed for many nights. There is a perfect
reign of terror. Every citizen goes armed,
and one AN scarcely buy a revolver in the
place. Monday night the Eagle hose COM
pany volunteered their services as special
patrol, and a vigilance committee is being
formed Tie thieves are becoming so bold
that they openly tell the solitary policeman
Of intended raids at night A tour OF the
hardware and gun stores reveals the fact
that the stock of locks and belts and guns
and revolvers in the city is exhausted. Deal
ers have sent to Buffalo for additional sup
plies.
One noted New York thief and four pals
are at a fashionable clearinghouse, and
four weli-khowD Buffalo crooks are at an
other. AT a special session of the city coun.
ci Thurs lay night 500 was offered fol-

THE first colored state fair in Florida,
which was held at Jacksonville last
month, furnished striking evidence both
OF the rapid progress which the race is
making and of the growth in harmonious
relations between the whites and blacks.
The range of exhibits was very extensive,
and the patronage incuded hundreds Of
white spectators every day. Better than
the signs of progress in agriculture and
the mechanical arts was the evidence
furnished of progress in education and
the finer arts. Mr.. Albert j Russell,
Superintendent of public instruction in
Florida for some years past. delivered the
opening address, and congratulated his
hearers upon the fact that the cOlored
people had Just reported the raising of
funds which assured the establishment
OF an industrial schonl for the train
ing of their boys and giIls in a
knowledge of tools and the trades
1t will thus be seen that the negroes
are not only improving to the full the
educational advantages offered by the
public schools. but are becoming SO pros
porous that they can established al indus
trial school of their own. This is only
one Of many signs OF progress in Florida,
which is fast developing common
school system worthy to rank with that
ef any northern state. A letter from Mr.
Russell announces that the forthcoming
reports for last year will show an increase
in the number of schools from 1904 in
1884 to /, 724 in 1885, and ,S32 in 1886,
with q corresponding increase IN the en>
rolment snd average attendance. Best
of all, he concludes, with that self>
reliant spirit which is now so rapidly
growing in the south, the people of
Florida are doing it all themselves with>
out any aid from any outside source.
